Archiving Color Image to Single Strip 35mm Black & White Film GOAL: Stable image storage that is recoverable and reliable.

Current Archival Preservation Method YCM Separations (3) Separate Primary Colors – Yellow, Cyan, Magenta Recorded to: (3) Separate Black & White Film Reels

Visionary™ Archival Process (3) Separate Primary Colors Recorded to: (1) Black & White Film Reel

Two Methods Visionary ™ Archive RGB+: HD or 2K Full RGB to 3 Quadrants Audio and/or Metada in the fourth RGB Intra-Mosaic: 4K Full RGB Intra-mosaic to 4 Quadrants Each method provides optimum film master from provided source.

Visionary™ Archive – RGB+

Pixel Accurate Alignment Patterns

Consistent Color Representation Calibration and alignment patterns to ensure consistent luminance, blacks, midtones, and whites.

Creative Intent Preserved Alignment patterns allow reconstruction pixel to pixel Color creative intent preserved with this alignment pattern– not simply images

Tests Recorders: ARRILASER 2, Aaton K, Celco, etc. Film Stock: Kodak 2234, 2238, 5269, Fuji RDS 4791

Data Migration/Archival Data and Video tape become obsolete Film expected to last 300 years

Visionary™ Archive Workflow

Visionary™ Archival Process 2/3 less film grain than traditional YCM recombine Re-registration not required Warped film no longer an issue Alignment patterns ensure solid stabilization Creative intent preserved on film Stable image storage that is recoverable and reliable Free source code provided for open standard unarchiving

Visionary™ Audio Recorded series of values Digital Values can range from 16-24 bit and 48-96kHz Digital information encoded in analog wrapper Protected digital values impervious to film scratches, warping, creases, and dust Each value is sampled two times to protect sound integrity

What’s Next? 3D Stereoscopic Archive Element Developing Metadata Integration
